Addons are now almost a necessity for both firefox and google chrome not because they are broken but because they are just so useful or just to personalize your browser the way you like it. Though not all addons are useful, helpful, or even safe cough'babylontoolbar'cough.
So these are some addons I like or recommend. For you to try.

Session Manager
Want to keep backups of a large amount of tabs you use a lot and are afraid of the default firefox session manager losing it. Worry no more as this keeps up to 10 backups of sessions you have along with allowing you to choose which session you wish to start with you can as well import and export your sessions with Tab Mix Plus manger along with others.

I definitely prefer Firefox to Internet Explorer. These add on will come in hand, especially the FireShot one!

While I agree FireShot is a good addon It isn't free a 30 day trial is the best you get and that just doesn't cut it for me also ALL Browsers>IE.
